The reason these foods are a problem when it comes to your skin is that they are inflammatory. When you’re creating inflammation in the body, your skin is going to respond with breakouts and other ailments.

For instance, if I eat bread, I get rosacea, which is redness around my nose.

If you ever see me with red skin around my nose, you’ll know I’ve eaten bread within the past day or two, it’s a tell-tale sign.

Another big culprit in skin breakouts is sugar, which is why I suggest eliminating it from your diet.

3. Get Your Greens

Our Energy Greens powder is amazing; it tastes great and it contains the best-quality ingredients on the planet.

The reason greens powders are awesome is because they provide you with a myriad of alkalizing nutrients. It’s really important to keep your body slightly alkaline from an overall health perspective.

And in case you’re interested, these nutrients are the most important ones for the health of your skin.

Now if you don’t have a greens powder, no big deal (although I do recommend it). But one of the quickest – and most delicious – ways to get more leafy greens into your diet is with green smoothies. Here are a few easy recipes to get you started.

4. Moisturize Inside and Out with Coconut Oil

This is one of my favorite tips because it’s multi-purpose, and plus it feels great.

I no longer use moisturizers, even though we live in Toronto and it’s very cold and dry here in the winter.

Coconut oil is great for your skin, both as something to eat and something to put on your skin as a moisturizer.

Let’s say you come out of the shower and your skin is dry. All you have to do is slather it on your skin to lock in moisture.
